Aly: Hey!

Aj: Hi

Pete, Brad, Steve, David: Hey! Whats up.

Timothy: Hahaha, Alright. Now you guys are probably wondering...who the heck is 78 Violet? Well we're going to be finding that out right now. But first let me address that theres two specific ladies in the band, who also happened to be the lead singers. They're actually familiar faces...do you know who it is...its Aly and AJ GUYS!

Aly and Aj look at each other and smile.

Tim: Now ladies can I please just say Welcome Back. Really where have you two been hiding?

Aj: haha, thank you and we've actually been you know just doing our own thing. Taking a breather, taking a break, living our own life, and you know writing new material.

Tim: Thats crazy. Its been what 9, 10 years since your last album?

Aj: Yes. 10 years. (Aj nodding her head agreeing with the host)

Tim: Wow. That's really amazing, and now here you two are with your new band. Now tell me whats with the name 78 Violet? What happened to just plain Aly and Aj?

Aj: Well you know its basically summing up who we are now, with being new artist and a new band. When we were starting out you got to meet plain Aly and Aj. Now this is something new were bringing to you guys.

Aly: I mean we definitely grown up as people and of course as artist and I think with this album you would be able to see that. And with 78 Violet, I mean, its nice to be characterized as an actual band. Not just us two, Aly and Aj.

Tim: Now Aly your 23 or 24?

Aly: 24

Tim turns to Aj.

Tim: And Aj your...? (waiting for her to answer)

Aj:22

Tim: Its so crazy, I remember practically growing up with you guys. Especially Aly here who was a former disney star.

Both girls laugh and smile

Aly: Yeah life's crazy sometimes. You never know when your past will collide with your future.

Scene- while 78 Violet is doing their radio interview, Ricky is helping set up the sound equipment.

Joe: Hey Raviv! Hows everything going? (walking to him as he sees Ricky messing with tech equipment)

Ricky: Pretty good. Everything is almost set. Do you know when the bands coming in to do their sound check?

Joe: Probably after their radio interview with Smash Music.

Ricky stops what hes doing and turns to Joe not believe the words going in his ears.

Ricky: Their on Smash Music?!

Joe: Yup.

Ricky: Who the heck are these guys, Red Hot Chili Peppers?

Joe: Come on Raviv. There nice people.

Ricky: Yeah I know, its just kinda amazing how this band who came from no where is already running New York City. (turning back to finish what he was doing)

Joe: Your right. I hope tonight doesn't get too crazy. All my security guards and waiters are working tonight.

Ricky: Hey Joe if you need an extra hand tonight..-

Joe: -No Ricky. I appreciate it though. But no, you've helped me enough. I want you to come tonight and have fun, okay? If I need your help I'll find you. But really I just want you to come and enjoy the music.

Ricky: Okay. But I'm not sure if I'll enjoy some band name 78 Violet, I mean come on really?

*********Smash Music**********

Tim: HAHAHA, okay okay. So let me ask, you two dating? Single? Guys around the world are dying to know.

Aj: We're both single.

Tim: Really? Michalka sisters are single? Theres no way. Alyson what happened to your boyfriend Matthew Carson. The NFL Football player.

Tim calls Aly out, Aj looks over at Alyson, hoping she doesn't break down.

Aly: Me and Matt have been broken up for months now. Umm..both going our separate ways. He has his career, I have mine. So...I mean thats pretty much it. (fighting to keep it together)

Tim: So are you girls seeing anyone at all?'

Aly: No, both single.

Tim: Aj? Really? (now turning to Aj, hoping to at least get a small juicy romance information out)

Aj: Yup.

Tim: What about Craig, do you still talk to him?

Aj: No we don't speak. But you know...it happens. Simple as that. (Aj is such a pro at this)

Tim: Well then...okay. Next topic (giving up and realizing he wont be able to make them talk)

**********Area*********

Ricky still fixing out a few more things for the show. Zack walks in..

Zack: Aye Raviv, whats up? Getting this shit ready for tonight I see. I heard tons of people are coming. (walking to him good friend)

Ricky: Yeah. Apparently. You checking it out?

Zack: You know me. I'm always down to listen to whats new in the scene. Especially curious with this band.

Ricky: Why? Whats up? (walks around him, Zack follows)

Zack: I searched for 78 Violet everywhere and couldn't find a thing. Even google was useless. Its a record label thing. Their probably paying big bucks to make sure all there shit stays a secret. Their music, sound, identity, everything. Even members.

Ricky: Thats crazy. (stops to talk to him)

Zack: Crazy and smart. That means no one can download their music, until an album is finally released. And the fact that its a new band makes it even more thrilling. Pretty excited for tonight I must say.

Ricky: Haha alright. Well I'm almost done here. Wanna grab some lunch afterwards then get ready for night. Pregame at my place?

Zack: Down!

*****Smash Music****

Tim: Well it was great talking to you lovely ladies. And Good luck tonight with your performance. Everyone catch them at 'Area' tonight to get a little snippet of their new album. Everyone 78 Violet! (everyone in the room starts clapping)

Aly and Aj: thank you.

Smash Music Producer: And we're clear.

Red 'On Air' Light goes off.

Aly and Aj taking off their headphones.

Aj: Well that was fun.

Aly: Yeah fun. (Alyson says sarcastically as they both get up)

James: Alright we gotta go to sound check. Lets move.

The band picks up their things and makes their way to 'Area'.
